Why is that? I'm a father of 2, oldest 4 and youngest 2, full time job and my goal is 350km / week from march till end of september. 200 - 250 a week october till februari. I have time on tuesdayevening, wednesdayevening, sunday and if i m lucky also saturday.But here in Belgium it does happen the weather is simply to bad to train outside.So then i train inside on my tacx, on a resistance compared to training outside. No avg like someguys @ 45k an hour. 2 hours on the tackx to me is much harder than 2 hours on the street!

However i made a bikeprofile 'stumpjumper tacx' so i can see how many hours / 'km's ' i did inside.

Isn't Strava supposed to have an algorithm that recognizes KOMs set in a car post ride? I thought they said they did, until I forgot to turn off my phone and accidentally set a couple KOMs myself, doing 45mph up a 1mi 6% grade climb. It is an easy mistake to make, as the phone app can be a little clunky, especially if you have a weak signal, and may upload the ride without alerting you that you didn't hit stop at the end of the ride. That sort of thing should be easily recognizable by a rudimentary algo.

Indoor rides shouldn't be a problem for KOM hunters. It sounds like it is the people looking to get recognized for most mi/week that have an issue with them counting equally.

Ebikes are going to be a disaster for Strava. Requiring just HR wouldn't even be enough, because you have could have a somewhat unfit person on an ebike, redlining themselves, so they are really putting out a high relative effort, but they are getting a 250w electric boost, which would put their own personal redline into Froome territory for speed. Requiring power would help, but you could always have someone using a Powertap on an ebike and, as far as I know, it wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

Maybe they can use the phone sensors to recognize the EMF put out by the motor, in a manner similar to the UCI bike checks. Other than that, I think the days of (semi) reliable KOMs are over.
